      I'm one of those PVs that when selected, decided to shift within 1km of the sch. I was outfront with this as in my apln letter, I clearly stated that this will be my plan should I be selected. To the sch, selecting me as a PV will be no different from selecting someone within 1km of sch. If the sch has a problem with that, surely I won't be selected. An ex-colleague of mine was staying within 1km for years when he got selected.


      So it concerns me when a different sort of picture is being painted in this forum. But that's still ok. There'll always be differences in a public forum like this. I respect that. The best way to move forward is to confirm with the sch. And even if in the end there's still differences, surely at our age we can deal with disagreements.

      What really saddens me is that there are forumers here who will resort to personal attacks and even curses when there're disagreements. To me, this is counter-productive and uncalled for.
      this is a public forum

      who knows the guy hiding behind his computer screen could very well turn out to be your next door neighbour

      but in any case, as sincere we our hearts know how in this kind of forum, just ignore those who are ............ (no word to describe)

        markfch,
        i have not personally seen what was written previously as the mod has efficiently removed them, but i must say that this forum is one of the more 'protected' forum that i have been to.
        so cheers to chief and the mods :celebrate: (not me la!)

            I fully empathise with PVs devoting hours and yet not able to place kids in choice school. This could be a very disappointing experience. That said, still, personal attacks, names calling are totally unnecessary especially in this case. I appreciate this being moved out out of PHPPS thread. Thanks.

                I think there might be some misunderstandings on how school chose their PVs. I do not think any school would intentionally choose those staying > 2km to do PV as PV falls under phase 2B together with grassroots & clan\\church members. The school has no control over the number of applicants from these 2 groups and where they stay. Should applicants exceed available places, those > 2km are first to be affected.

                    No typo error, there was some unhappiness earlier.

                      Actually, janet_lee88, sorry if I am going to sound rude here. Tankee was just curious that the sentence might be phrased incorrectly.
